TL;DR · Wireless SOC Verification Engineer

As a Wireless SOC Verification Engineer, you will join the Wireless SOC team to verify complex systems and ensure tape-out readiness for high-performance wireless chips. You will be responsible for pre-silicon RTL verification of both blocks and top-level SOCs, focusing on high-speed layered protocols, low-power architectures, and firmware-hardware interactions. Your daily work involves creating coverage-driven verification plans from specifications, architecting highly reusable UVM testbenches, and integrating complex multi-instance VIPs and sub-system test suites. You will also manage power management designs using UPF simulations and verify components like PCIe, memory controllers, and bus fabrics. To succeed, you must possess expertise in SystemVerilog and the UVM methodology while navigating the complexities of multi-chip SOC debug architectures to meet demanding wireless protocol requirements within a dynamic, multi-functional engineering environment.

What you'll do

  • Create coverage-driven verification plans from technical specifications to meet defined coverage targets.
  • Architect highly reusable UVM-based testbenches and integrate complex multi-instance VIPs into the SOC level.
  • Perform pre-silicon RTL verification for both individual blocks and top-level SOC designs.
  • Execute power management verifications using low-power methodologies and UPF simulations.
  • Verify high-speed layered protocols, including PCIe, memory controllers, and various bus architectures.
  • Debug complex multi-chip SOC architectures and firmware-hardware interactions.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate and verify overall SOC designs for tape-out readiness.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor of Science degree and at least 10 years of relevant industry experience.
  • Proven track record of working a full ASIC cycle from concept to tape-out and bring-up.
  • Expertise in SystemVerilog coding and UVM methodology.
  • Experience taping out large SOC systems with embedded processor cores (preferred).
  • Hands-on verification experience of PCIe, Bus Fabric, NOC, AHB, and AXI based bus architecture in a UVM environment (preferred).
  • Experience with Formal Verification (preferred).
  • In-depth knowledge of low power design, UPF integration, boot-up, and HW/FW interaction verification (preferred).
  • Excellent communication and problem-solving skills (preferred).
